  • In this paper we show the hardware testbed and software simulator of multi function array radar (MFAR). The hardware MFAR is simple and flexible hardware to implement various radar beamforming and detecting algorithms. To overcome the limitation of hardware MFAR, the software simulator is proposed. User can simulate radar under the various environment conditions adjusting the parameter of simulator. User can set environment of radar, such as the location and velocity of target, jammer and the terrain clutter. The radar use various probing pulses and supports two operation mode, surveillance and tracking mode.

  • This paper presents an altitude detection accuracy for long range and multifunction radar. The accuracy is difficult to estimate because it is affected by an time varying atmosphere refractivity. We analyze altitude accuracy with a raytracing simulator with atmosphere refractivity. An altitude error is simulated with measured and modeled refractivity, and the modeled refractivity is used for compensate an altitude accuracy. As a result, the error is modeled with normal distribution function, and analyzed.

  • Target prioritization is necessary for a multifunction radar(MFR) to track an important target and manage the resources of the radar platform efficiently. In this paper, we consider an artificial neural network(ANN) model that calculates the priority of the target. Furthermore, we propose a neural network learning algorithm based on the steepest descent method, which is more suitable for target prioritization by combining the conventional gradient descent method. Several simulation results show that the proposed scheme is much more superior to the traditional neural network model from analyzing the training data accuracy and the output priority relevance of the test scenarios.

  • A distributed system for tracking multiple targets with a pair of multifunction radars is proposed and implemented. The system performs track-to-track association and track-to-track fusion at the fusion center to form fused tracks. The association and fusion are performed using target state information linked via communication nodes from a radar at a remote location. Many factors can affect the track-to-track association and fusion performances. They include delays in data transmission buffer of the remote radar, the error in estimating time-stamp of the remote radar, and the gating in track-to-track association. The effects on association and fusion performances due to these factors are investigated through extensive numerical simulations.

  • This work presents a 77 GHz radar transmitter for the automotive radar system. An integrated 13 GHz frequency synthesizer fabricated using 130 nm RF CMOS process drives a commercial W-band compound semiconductor monolithic multifunction amplifier(MPA), which includes a frequency multiplier by six to generate 77 GHz transmitting signal. The 13 GHz frequency synthesizer includes a high efficiency injection buffer of 4 dBm output power to drive the MPA. The output power of 77 GHz radar transmitter is higher than 13.99 dBm and the magnitude of the reference spur relative to the carrier is -36.45 dBc. The phase noise is -81 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset frequency from the carrier.

  • In the past, radars have been classified into fire control radars, detection radars, tracking radars, and image acquisition radars according to the characteristics of the mission. However, multi-function radars perform various tasks within a single system, such as target detection, tracking, identification friend or foe, jammer detection and response. Therefore, efficient resource management is essential to operate multi-function radars with limited resources. In particular, the target threat for tracking the detected target and the method of selecting the tracking cycle based on this is an important issue. If focus on tracking a threat target, Radar can't efficiently manage the targets detected in other areas, and if you focus on detection, tracking performance may decrease. Therefore, effective scheduling is essential. In this paper, we propose the TaP (Time and Priority) algorithm, which is a multi-functional radar scheduling scheme, and a software design method to construct it.

  • We have implemented receiver for a 3 Dimensional Phased-Array Radar detecting the azimuth angle, the altitude, the range of a target on real time. This system consists of high frequency module, which protects receiver and controls sensitivity, intermediate frequency module, monopulse detector, IQ phase detector, AGC controller. A two-channel receiver with same function is implemented for increasing accuracy of target altitude data by amplitude comparison monopulse method. The TSS sensitivity of the receiver is -98dBm. The bandwidth of the receiver is 500 MHz. We can control the system gain manually by 100 dB when be AGC off. The gain and phase unbalance of two channels is 5 dB and 30 degree, respectively. The image rejection rate of the IQ detector is 30 dB. We used duroid substrate and package- type device.
